In the spirit of Christmas, I thought it would be a great idea to host my first giveaway! I haven't done one before but I heard that they are hugely popular, so I thought what the hey? I am excited to say I am giving away a Mac Lipstick! Do not be put off my the photo guys the lipstick is brand new still in the packaging. The lipstick colour is a deep tone beige, that Mac call 'Velvet Teddy'.

The last date of entry is the 17th of December. I will be contacting the winner on the 18th of December via. Twitter or email so make sure to check to see if you've won. Hopefully, it can get to the winner before Christmas so if you're not someone who likes wearing lipstick you can give it to someone else as a gift! It is open for international entries for anyone who is wondering and I will be covering the costs for delivery. Ways to enter are included below so good luck everyone!

SETTLING IN AT UNIVERSITY

Wow, it has been just over 2 months since I last published a post and I am SO sorry for that! I have been insanely busy over this time period with the weeks leading up to University and the first couple of weeks that I just haven't had the time to think of anything to write and I didn't want to just write a whole load of mumbo jumbo! Although this is probably what this post will consist of... I promise it'll get better though!

PREPARING FOR UNIVERSITY

So if you guys didn't already know I am off to University next month! I'm super nervous and I'm still not entirely sure what to expect but I am also very excited to start a new chapter in my life. I've slowly been preparing for University for a couple of months now buying the odd few bits here and there and on Friday I went on a mad shopping spree with a friend of mine who is off to University too.

TOP THREE PLACES ON MY TRAVEL BUCKET LIST

Right so my plan to publish on Tuesdays kind of went a bit pear shaped last week. I was really busy so I totally forgot to finish and publish my post but hopefully I'm back on track now..
Now I have only been to about five different places outside of the UK and I have never been out of Europe! I've been to Normandy & Disneyland Paris in France, Malia in Greece and Padua & Venice in Italy. I had a really nice time at each of these places although there are a lot more destinations that I would of rather been however I am only going to talk about my main three.

THE VERSATILE BLOGGER AWARD

Good morning guys! So yesterday I received a notification that the lovely Ashleigh from Natural Girl- Unnatural World had nominated me for the 'Versatile Blogger Award' How sweet! This is my first ever award so you can imagine I was very happy when I saw that I had been nominated so Thank you Ashleigh! 

The requirements for accepting the award include sharing 7 things about myself and spreading the blog love by nominating others. Now not too long ago I did a '10 facts about me' post which you can find here so I did struggle to come up with more facts so I apologise in advance if they are quite boring!

Hey guys, so quick announcement. I have decided that I am going to try and publish a blog post every Tuesday. Exciting, right? So make sure you check back every Tuesday to see any of my new content. I may decide to publish twice in a week, who knows?! But I am definitely going to try and focus on publishing on Tuesdays. This lovely sunny Tuesday I decided to list some of my favourite songs at this moment in time as next week we will be in August! Where has the time gone? Now as much as I like songs that are currently in the charts I do enjoy an oldie. I hope you do too!

THINGS I'D TELL MY TEENAGE SELF

Hello guys, happy Tuesdaaaay! So I was looking through my old phone photos the other week and let's just say I laughed very hard for a whole 2 minutes. I was not a very cool or stylish teenager to say the least.. And it just encouraged me to write a 'few' tips that I wish I could tell my teenage self!

WHAT'S IN MY MAKE UP BAG?

Hey guys! Today I thought I would let you guys know what make up I have in my make up bag and maybe give a review on a couple of items too! What you may find surprising is before a few months ago the only make up I had in my collection was just the typical foundation and mascara.. I was so closed minded on all the other products there was out there that I had no idea just how much better they all are combined! So one day I was watching a make up tutorial on Youtube when I thought to myself 'why not?' and the next day I went to Boots and Superdrug on my lunch break and bought anything that caught my eye!

THE BESTFRIEND TEST

Hi guys! So I thought it would be fun for me to put together some questions to ask two of my closest friends to see how much they both know about me! I have been friends with Fleur for nearly 4 years and I have been friends with Serena for just over two years and they have both spent enough time with me that I would have definitely mentioned the answers at one time or another so I expected both of them to get all the answers correct! I told them both that whoever got the most answers correct would win the 'Bestfriend' title. There were 8 points up for grabs so lets see who won!
